Emirates One&Only Wolgan Valley Resort (5*)

Emirates One&Only Wolgan Valley Resort is a luxury conservation-based resort located in Australia's Greater Blue Mountains World Heritage area. Modelled on acclaimed Al Maha Desert Resort & Spa in Dubai, the resort is set within its own private conservation and wildlife reserve where guests can enjoy absolute luxury, tranquility and connection with nature. Nestled between two National Parks and spread out at the foot of towering sandstone cliffs, the homestead-style resort occupies just two percent of the total land area of 4,000 acres. Up to 90 guests are catered for in 40 free-standing suites each with private swimming pool, and a main homestead with luxury facilities and stand-alone timeless spa. Guests are able to appreciate the very special natural, cultural and scenic values of the Wolgan Valley through a diverse range of nature based activities.

Overview

Encompassing 40 free-standing luxury suites, each with its own private terrace and swimming pool, Emirates One&Only Wolgan Valley Resort was built using today's cutting edge technology and yet perfectly echoes the original heritage architecture, allowing it to blend seamlessly with the vastness and dramatic beauty of the Australian bush. Using world-leading conservation measures, the original Homestead has been carefully restored to its former glory.

Heritage Suite

Heritage Suite

Constructed from wood and stone materials and designed in Federation-style, Wolgan Valley's 36 Heritage Suites are ideal for single guests, or couples looking for luxurious surroundings on a romantic break. Each has a private aspect offering stunning views of the valley beyond. The private pool features its own deck surrounded by a garden of native plants and shrubs; a spacious verandah adjoins it. Inside, a central, double-sided fireplace of local sandstone separates the bedroom from the living area. Great attention to detail has been paid to ensure the fixtures and fittings are reminiscent of the Federation period; right down to the last hinge, light switch and glass blown shade. Warm, earthy tones and thick, neutral linens are complemented by locally-crafted wood furniture that typifies the lodge's timeless style and elegance. The suites feature entertainment and internet technologies. Thoughtful extras, such as binoculars, let you get up close with the wildlife without having to leave the deep-cushioned comfort of the sofa. A luxurious ensuite bathroom features twin vanities, a separate shower and bath, while the indulgent Babor bathroom therapies are 100 per cent biodegradable.

The Country Kitchen

The Country Kitchen

You can drop in at the Country Kitchen for a light snack of coffee and toast if the morning calls for a change from breakfast in the Wolgan Dining Room. Or you may wait until it's time for lunch and selected your favorite from the daily specials on the blackboard. Kitchen specialties such as a regional ploughman’s platter or antipasto, salted white bait fritter served with a crispy salad, or Butternut Pumpkin with Black Cod Tortellini are just a few examples for what is on offer.

In the evening, crisp linen adorn the tables, while polished silver and sparkling crystal ware catches the light for a refined six-course menu or an à la carte evening meal. The menu changes daily and varies according to season - in order to taste a much larger selection of culinary delights, why not try the nine-course degustation menu, available upon request.
